ETCCDI Extremes Indices Archive

The climate extremes indices defined by the Expert Team on Climate
Change Detection and Indices (ETCCDI) are computed for a number of
global climate models participating in the Coupled Model
Intercomparison Project Phase 3
(CMIP3)
and Phase 5
(CMIP5),
and reanalyses. The definitions of the indices are given
here. The validation of
climate extremes indices and analysis of their projected future
changes simulated by the CMIP5 models is presented in
Sillmann et al. (2013a, 2013b)

The indices are available for download from an anonymous ftp
server. The URL address will be sent to you by email. Please make
